Phins back into top pick; Monday niter to decide #2

September 29, 2019

Phins sneak into top pick; Monday niter to decide #2 … We are still a week or so away from starting to post the weekly ‘if the draft were held today’ selection order for 2020; however, IF the draft were to be held this week, Miami would be have the top pick after the Dolphins lost to the LA Chargers yesterday to drop to 0-4. And it probably wasn’t the plan when they drew up the NFL schedule, but the loser of Monday night’s game between 0-3 Cincinnati and 0-3 Pittsburgh will hold the 2nd pick overall for at least this week. Meanwhile, Washington would have the 3rd pick, followed by Denver, and the NY Jets, with Arizona, at 0-3-1, rounding out this week’s top 6. However, the Jets at #5 comes with a bit of an asterix. The Jets had a bye this week and are only 0-3, while the other winless teams are all 0-4. And the Jets have the weakest strength of schedule of all the winless teams and would actually sit at #1 overall if they were to lose their game in hand.
